Pavel Eisner Bloudění Jaroslava Durycha. Literární transfer, tvorba kánonu a identita
Pavel Eisner and Bloudění by Jaroslav Durych. Literary transfer, canon formation and identity

Summary/Abstract: The life and work of Pavel Eisner and his role in literary and cultural transfer has in the past attracted the attention of many researchers. However, only marginal attention has been paid to Eisner’s German translation of Durych’s “larger” and “smaller” Wallenstein trilogy, despite the fact that it forms an important stage in Eisner’s work. On the basis of Eisner’s notes on the novel Bloudění, the present study deals with the issue of why Eisner was so intensively involved on behalf of Durych both on the Czech scene and in Germany. The study analyses the search for cultural, ethnic and religious/denominational identity in Eisner’s literary criticism and aesthetic attitudes.
